You know the biggest GBA game is only 32MB right?
Suppose the 10 games they give you are that big. 10x32=320MB.
I think NES maximum is 6MB. 320 + 10x6= 380MB.

You'll only be using 2% of your 16G SD card


I wanted to post that ^^ ( and I wanted to post this 3 hours ago but left with the quote of your post unsent :p)



OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoO

Why a youtube app and not just make the browser support various flash or whatever these sites use?

I don't know the hardware specs of the 3DS, but the CPU+GPU combo should be enough to support flash. Why not support it on the browser? Jobs told us. Flash is a resource hog. It's the same reason why flash doesn't work on iPhones but they get the youtube app - battery life.

Nintendo just needs to support H.264 then youtube and other streaming methods are open for the 3DS. You could even stream your own media content in your network... though I'd prefer DLNA support so I could use the media server I already have up and running :)

Actually the biggest NES game is 6Mb which is only .75MB

OT: I picked up a 16GB SDHC Card for $25 on Black Friday last year for my 3DS. I've only used like 2GB though.



Yes, NES games aren't very big. But you have to consider that the emulator is packed with the game every time, and that takes a lot (not really a lot, though... but more than the ROM itself) of space.



Need something off Play-Asia? http://www.play-asia.com/

Adobe is the one you have to blame with Flash. They don't properly support handhelds.

I recently bought two 8GB SD cards for both of my Wiis, but one of my Wiis has a messed up SD card slot, so I'm thinking I'm just going to put one of those cards into my 3DS instead.



 SW-5120-1900-6153

When I took out the SD card, it was over 400MB in there.
Nothing special in there other than the free stuff from eshop. All E3 videos already deleted, too.




I just grabbed a 16gb card for my phone so I took my old 8GB card and put it on my 3DS. I copied everything to the new card this morning but a ton of content didn't make it over from my old 2GB card.
-Netflix
-E3 Vides
-Excitebike
-Pokemon 3D Pokedex
-Nintendo Video

Do I have to re-download all of them? And if I do, should I re-format my memory card since a ton of content is apparently saved to the cards but no longer accessible? Is there an easy way to transfer data from one card to another? (I just copied the 2GB card onto the 8GB card--then tossed it into my 3DS). Have you had any issues?

Everything copied over for me. Are you sure  you didn't skip anything?

I think I did it right.  I still have the 2GB card.  I'll just wipe the 8GB clean and try it again.
